PRODUCTION DATA
The differential pair traces for each USB port (USB_DP_XX/USB_DM_XX, SB_SSTXP_XX/USB_SSTXM_XX, USB_SSRXP_XX/USB_SSRXM_XX ) must be designed with a characteristic impedance of 90 Ω ±10% between the complementary signals (that is, + and –). The width and spacing of the differential pair traces can be modified to achieve the characteristic impedance of 90Ω, and may differ depending on the PCB stack up and materials used. The differential traces on the TUSB8040A1 EVM are 4.1 mils wide with 7.4 mil spacing from a pin pad that is approximately 9.5 mils wide.
The remaining traces should be as close as possible to 50-Ω characteristic impedance. To meet this impedance requirement, the traces on the EVM are 6.0 mils wide. Due to constraints from routing the differential pairs, board stack up, and board thickness requirements, the board fabricator may not be able to get to precisely 50 Ω, in which case maintaining impedances within ±20% of 50 Ω is acceptable.
